Abstract
Uncertainties in the decision making of reliability centered maintenance (R CM) an discussed. These uncertainties might be unacceptable in many practic al applications, leading to non-optimum maintenance strategies. An alternat ive approach, opening for specified uncertainties is shown to correct this defect. Exemplifying the approach; a simple fire detection system is discus sed. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
